GENERAL ADVICE
• Before you begin cleaning, you must ensure that the appliance is switched off
and disconnected from the electrical power supply.
• Important: The use of suitable protective clothing/gloves is recommended when
handling or cleaning of this appliance.
• Under no circumstances should any external covers be removed for servicing or
maintenance except by suitable qualified personnel.
• It is advisable to clean when the appliance is cold and especially when cleaning the
enamelled parts.
• Be very careful that no water penetrates inside the appliance.
• Avoid leaving alkaline or acidic substances (lemon juice, vinegar, etc.) on the surfaces.
• Avoid using cleaning products with a chlorine or acidic base.
• Clean the surfaces with a damp cloth and using neutral, non-aggressive detergents.
Complete the cleaning with a dry, clean cloth.
• IMPORTANT: Never use abrasive products (e.g. certain type of sponges) and/or
aggressive products (e.g. caustic soda, detergents containing corrosive substances)
that could irreversibly damage the surfaces.
• Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance thus
make it unsafe.
• Important: The manufacturer declines all liability for possible damage caused by
the use of unsuitable products to clean the appliance.
WARNING! When correctly installed, your product meets all safety requirements
laid down for this type of product category. However special care should be taken
around the underneath of the appliance as this area is not designed or intended to
be touched and may contain sharp or rough edges, that may cause injury.
GLASS SURFACE
• Remove spillages and other types of incrustations by using only specific products
which do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
• If you use a detergent, please make sure that it is not abrasive or scouring. Abrasive
or scouring powders can damage the glass surface of the hob.
• All traces of the cleaner must be removed with a damp cloth.
• Dust or food particles can be removed with a damp cloth.
• Dust, fat and liquids from food that has boiled over must be removed as soon as
possible.
• If they are allowed to harden they become increasingly difficult to remove. This is
especially true in the case of sugar/syrup mixtures which could permanently damage
the surface of the hob if left to burn on it.
• Avoid using a knife or other sharp utensil as these may damage the glass surface.
• Do not use steel wool or an abrasive sponge which could scratch the surface
permanently.
• Do not put articles on the hob which can melt: i.e plastic, aluminium foil, sugar, sugar
syrup mixtures etc.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the glass since
they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
